Same here. Foams and setting lotions tend to make my hair difficult to manage and hard to comb through. Like lulu said, I care more about slip to avoid breakage than I do about hold. I use Shescentit's coco creme leave in.

@NaturallyATLPCH i see everyone answered your question but I wanted to pipe in and say I agree with something slippy. I can't use setting lotions because they make my hair hard and hard to comb. The it's a 10 leave in is

In hair purgatory
I tried setting my hair the other day on my new bouffant rollers and the set came out nice. But then I tried to put on my soft bonnet dryer and the rollers didn't fit! I was like
So I ended up buying a used hooded dryer on eBay. I will wait until I get it before I start setting again

My vitamins came in today!
I decided to get the multivitamins in the version without the iron since it had potassium and the other one didnt... plus this version was BOGO. I just purchased the iron seperate. And of course, you can never order something from Vitacost without grabbing some liquid stevia. Yum

Current Setting products: CHI Keratin Leave In, APB Leave Ins, any other leave ins with slip

Finally roller set yesterday. I missed last week wash session due to crazy overtime at work.
I used Nupur henna, washed that out with Head & shoulders moisturing shampoo, followed up with a bottle a Vo5 strawberry n cream.
Dc with Aussie Moist 3 minutes with heat.
Once I rinsed out dc, I moisturize with Edens bodywork coconut Shea leave in, and put Elasta Qp foam on top.
Here are pics.
Oh and I'm having a girl ya'll!
Five more months to go

Ladies what should I do to my hair at night(the picture above)...my hair frizzes extremely easily so I'm nervous about what it will look like in the morning. So far I have been putting the rods in each night. And I thought the pineapple method is for longer hair so I'm unsure of any other ideas of how to preserve my hair for the next day. TIA

I've seen some ladies do more than one pineapple. I'll try to find a pic. I just wear a double lined bonnet and gently bantu knot or spin pin my hair.
ETA: I bumped a thread with ladies wearing more than one pineapple at night. I don't know how to C&P a link to the thread on my "Speak & Spell."
Hopefully, someone else will pipe in on how they maintain their curls/style.

Sometimes I do like @MileHighDiva said and I'll put in a few pineapples. My hair is very short so most times I can get away with just putting my bonnet or sleeping with nothing on a silk/satin pillowcase and then picking out in the morning. This is why I use gel or something with hold so my curls stay. When I do the pineapples the curls are usually starting to mess up and I'm trying to hold onto it for longer. I just tie them loosely with ouchless ponytail holders.

Happy Tuesday Ladies! I haven't been on in a week or so because I have was prepping for foot surgery (that I had yesterday). Everything went well, but I am off of my feet for 6 weeks! Needless to say, my hair is in two big goddess braids so that I don't have to worry about my hair during this healing process. I am not going to drop out because sometime soon, I will be able to put weight on my foot and therefore will be able to do what I do..but for now...
